Cardz Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Havent finished anything in quite awhile so was nice to get some progress on this one. Just a few little things to button up, but its pretty much done. Weathered using rust powders, raw sienna water colors, and mig streaking effects. Still have to dust up the hoses and find an air cleaner and side view mirror. I lost the hood and only had the custom hood and didnt like it. So when i find/buy another kit ill add that as well. But for now this is how she will sit. First time trying flat tires...they turned ok. Not exactly how i envisioned them but they will work. Vinyl top is masking tape. Robbed the engine from the 68 duster and also the firewall. I closed off the windows. Pretty basic black interior. Really wanted to showcase the weathering techniques ive learned on the body and bay. And here she is my Not so Superbee! Looking at the engine pics i also need to finish the battery...

mrmike Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Pat, none of your pictures are showing up. You can't post pictures with Photobucket unless you have their top of the line, $400 a year account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmann68 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Fine work! Realistic! A Superbee is always super, no matter what condition! Here's my friend's A12, pic taken last fall. His uncle bought it new and passed a few years ago. His aunt just gave it to him so it wouldn't leave family. Notice the patina!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I can see the larger pics, I can say I'm pretty impressed! The detail is great! Thanks for the bigger pics! I will almost never click on a link to view photos, & I'm sure I'm not alone. If the photo is not in the post, I probably won't take the time to go looking for it. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
